(signed ) Art Students Boost Show We emphatically do not recommend the use of propaganda for exploiting your showing of this picture. However, there are other methods which you can use to achieve the desired results. For example: Local art students can be enlisted to design posters which might be used in your advertising campaign. Theme of posters should be a challenge to espionage activities and fascist tendencies in this country. Supply them with the 4-page pamphlet shown on page 8 and stills from the picture. These will suggest numerous ideas to them. Posters are displayed in lobby where a committee of prominent localites select the best ones, which are awarded guest tickets to your showing. Reporters and photographers are also present for possible breaks in local dailies. Contact Organized Groups Personal contact with heads of active social and patriotic groups in your community will do much to boost your showing of this picture. Enlist the support of American Legion Posts, American Liberties Union, Patriotic Order of Sons of America, Anti-Defamation League, Veterans of Foreign Wars, Jewish War Veterans, Historical and Patriotic Societies, Rotary, Kiwanis, and Lions clubs, Daughters of the American Revolution, Knights of Columbus, etc. Supply them with the 4-page pamphlet shown on page 8, and the Nazi-United States advertising tickets shown on this page. And don't forget the Pastors, Rabbis, and other speakers in your community who might see fit to comment on the theme of the picture from their pulpits. [10]
